Laser or Safety Shutter Fault
This article shows what to check in the event of a Safety Shutter error. The message is not always related to these three components. It is always recommended to consult a qualified LaserStar technician to help you identify the problem.
1. With the laser turned off, remove the top cover.
2. Turn on the laser and check if the Safety Shutter performs the self-test and if the LED lights up during the test.

3. Check that the cables are correctly connected in the Safety Shutter and the
Safety Shutter PCB

4. On the Safety Shutter PCB, check that the cables are properly connected. With the laser off, try pulling on the red, blue, and black cables. If they are loose, tighten them with a flathead screwdriver. Also, check that the connection block is properly inserted into the PCB.

5. Check that J20 and J21 are correctly connected on the Control Board

6. If all the connections mentioned above are correct, you should replace the safety shutter, the safety shutter PCB, or the safety shutter cable.
